Now on the verge of the 21st century, humanity has an extraordinary opportunity to know their mind and their body. At present, there are more research centers, more hospitals and more scientific physicians than ever.
Nevertheless, all major science developments which serve humanity do not seem to meet all our health needs. Why is it with all the advanced scientific means we still cannot prevent pain and diseases like HIV and COVID-19? Maybe the reason lies in the fact that medical science is putting most of its efforts into healing rather than preventing. Neither the best medical technology nor the best physicians can balance the consequences of unhealthy habits. This blog has the aim of providing solutions to the ills afflicting our society. We shall be dissecting more than 400 plants classified according to their curative properties for each part of the human body and each disease. All medicinal applications of these plants are based on chemical, botanical, pharmaceutical research. I will give a scientific reason for each plant's preventive and healing actions on the human body, based on its chemical composition rather than on traditions or the often heard "my grandparents used it" As a gynecologist, I have the medical knowledge, lived the experiences of hospital life. My aim is to help the reader to attain a better understanding of the properties of herbs and their medicinal applications.
